In a May appearance on Fox News, he said "CNN has the right to fire me." "But candidly, that - there isn't much Native American culture in American culture."
"I mean, yes, we have Native Americans," Santorum said. Santorum came under fire from Native American groups after delivering an April speech in which he said that the United States "birthed a nation from nothing.
Toobin's comeback also comes shortly after CNN fired another high-profile contributor, former GOP Sen. The broader reckoning within the industry has also drawn criticism of a double standard, with high-profile journalists seeing relatively little discipline for perceived ethical breaches, while some younger employees have faced termination for offenses that are more ambiguous. His return to the news network comes at a time when both print and broadcast media are grappling with how to address inappropriate employee comments and behavior, especially in cases of actions not directly related to work. Toobin said that he has used the past months to try to become a better person, noting that he had been volunteering at a food bank, working on a book about the Oklahoma City bombing, and going to therapy. "I thought this punishment was excessive, but that's why they don't ask the criminal to be the judge in his own case," Toobin said.
